The 'not-so-obvious' risks of poorly executed emergency response training. Engagement and morale drop when training feels like a box to tick rather than a chance to hone skills. The following occurs when the focus is purely on fulfilling minimum requirements: - Mechanical drills create an illusion of preparedness that shatters when emergencies strike. Crews develop false confidence and lulled into complacency - Important abilities like communication, leadership, and critical thinking suffer when training emphasises rote processes. - Highly realistic scenarios are neglected, failing to provide immunity against freezing up. Skills training goes out the window when real emotional stress strikes. - Measuring performance in drills is an afterthought, leading to gaps being overlooked. Don't be that organisation who discovers serious preparedness gaps when an actual crisis erupts. - - I’m Brendan, and I help mariners act decisively in real emergencies ♻️ Repost if you found this helpful 🗣️ Join the conversation in the comments 💬 DM me to find out how I can simulate real maritime emergencies #maritimesafety #emergency #simulation

In the past 25 years, safety has become more complex. In addition to traditional health and safety functions, Globalization and threats from terrorism, pandemics, and natural disasters, Safety Professionals are expected to expand their duties – from the careful design and operation of nuclear power generating stations to the elimination of lead-based paints in homes.

Japanese firefighters participate in emergency escape training, honing their skills in simulated fire scenarios to ensure swift and safe evacuations. Japanese fire service emergency escape training is a rigorous and systematic program designed to enhance firefighters' ability to safely evacuate during emergencies. This training includes simulated fire scenarios, smoke-filled environments, and obstacle courses that replicate real-life conditions. Firefighters practice using specialized equipment, such as escape ropes and harnesses, to navigate through buildings. They also train in rapid decision-making and communication under pressure. Emphasis is placed on teamwork, physical fitness, and situational awareness. The goal is to ensure that firefighters can efficiently and safely escape from hazardous situations, thereby reducing risks and improving overall emergency response effectiveness. #safetyfirst #safety #fire #engineering #construction #civilengineering #civilconstruction #engenharia #engenhariacivil Credits : suitafire119_osaka

What we see isn't what we get... In this video provided by Instructor Joey Baxa at West Virginia Fire Service Extension, we see a Go PRO video (optical view on the right) and a thermal view (Bullard NXT on the left). Notice the differences in what the TIC detects that our human eyes do NOT SEE! At the 20 second mark, there is a massive amount of radiant heat in that room nearing flashover. Yet all the eye views is two small fires (one on the couch and one on the floor). For every time temperature doubles, radiant energy increases to the fourth power! Consider three perspectives that are affected by heat: * The victim * Their property * The firefighter. Let's work to mitigate severe conditions based on data and our training. A more complete picture is needed to mitigate the fire environment. Learn to use YOUR TIC to enhance strategies and tactics! Stay Intelligently Aggressive!
